Hi,
I currently own a Rebel G and am starting to take a lot of protrait
shots of people using either my 100mm  EF (old style) Macro or my 28-135
IS.  I always mount the camera to an old Vivitar bracket and use
available light with a 380 EX flash + Sto-Fen  Onmi bounce for fill.

I've been trying a variety of soft-focus filters and have been
dissatisfied with the results (I'm also tired of buying those filters). 
I remember reading on the list that there is a Rebel body (the II?) that
has a soft focus option, and I am also looking at the 135 f2.8
soft-focus lens.  Anybody have any direct comparison experience between
to the two and prefer one over the other?

I'll probably upgrade bodies within the next 3 months or so (the dot com
I work for is still alive so I figure I better buy when I still have a
salary), so the lens might be a better option, but I'm open to getting
another body to use for portraits if the II(?) is worth it.

Thanks for your input,
Jeff
